Go Board Game 1/4 Board

thingiverse

This is my design of a 19x19 Go Chinese Board Game. It represents one-fourth of the complete board, so four board pieces will need to be printed - the edge of the inside counts as a line - I have halved the triangle groove so that the two sides come together again to form a single groove (I hope this makes sense). I added 1cm blocks and holes on the sides, allowing the board to snap together. As a result, it can be glued into a single unit or stored as four separate pieces. The board measures 15cm x 15 cm, excluding the 1cm snap feature. Including the groove, its dimensions are 16cm x 15cm. As you will notice, the stones fit perfectly on the board. They have a diameter of 14mm and a height of 4mm. My inspiration for this design came from bqzero's work (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:630914). However, his original 19x19 design was far too small for my liking. Printing Instructions: No supports will be required (although they may be necessary depending on your printing material and settings, especially for the grooves at the bottom and snap features). You will need to print four separate board pieces. According to the rules I found (https://www.kiseido.com/ff.htm), Black begins with 181 stones and White starts with 180. Together, they total 361 stones, which corresponds to the number of intersections on a standard 19x19 Go board.
